Well, I have finally had time to put on the new Hellmann intake, but the number 3 injector line doesn't quite fit around one of the intake tubes. I have tweaked the stock line pretty good to the point where I think it might be weak in a couple places, so I think I should get another line...

I need to torque something to 18ft lbs. but my ft lb. torque wrench only goes down to 25 ft. lbs. I have a inch lb. torque wrench. Can I just multiply 18 ft lbs. X 12 inch lb=216 inch lbs My friend says that you shouldn't do that because it won't be accurate. Thanks for any input...

I have heard that the newer gasoline formulations don't last more than about 6 months. But, what about ULSD? Also, is there such thing as "premium" diesel that has a higher cetane rating? Thanks, Archie

Now that I'm trying to shim my overflow valve to get more pressure, does anyone know what the maximum allowable inlet pressure is to a p-pump. My Airdog has a 40 psi spring so it won't go over 40 psi. But I'm curious. Thanks, Archie

I bought a intake manifold from Hellmann and it doesn't have a hole for the intake temp sensor in the base plate. Does the intake air temp sensor do anything more than trigger the grid heaters to cycle when it is cold? I'm not running the grid heaters, so if this is the sole reason for the...

Has anyone had to buy new e-brake cables? Both sides on my truck are severely cracked to the point where I can see the cable. I looked at mopar4less.com, but they seem to only carry accessories. I know the dealer will want my arm and leg for them. Thanks for any suggestions, Archie

Just wondering if anyone has tried the aluminum two inlet intake from Hellmann Diesel Performance? It is along the same idea as the Banks Twin Ram. I was thinking about one of these to help the back cylinders get better air flow. Hellmann Performance Intercoolers, custom fabrication...

Hi, I have a 1995 3500 and have replaced the lift pump with a Airdog 150 that has a 40 psi regulator spring. I know that the stock overflow valve is supposed to open at 30 psi. To take advantage of the extra pressure and not have the overflow valve bleeding off 10 psi of pressure all of the...

I have a 1995 3500 2wd. I thinking about a set of compound turbos that needs the cooler lines removed. The most I will be towing is 3,000lbs. I have searched TDR about this and found that some folks think it would be a mistake to remove the stock setup, yet others have and it sounded sucessful...

Hi, I'm installing a AirDog 150 on my 1995 3500. I understand that there is an overflow valve in the return line from the injection pump. I'm planning on using an aftermarket aluminum fuel tank instead of stock. So I will have a return line coming from the AirDog pump/filter and a return line...

Hi, I searched and found one person who said that they had used a block off plate for the stock lift pump location when they went to a aftermarket lift pump/filter system. He didn't say where he got it in the post. Does anyone know where I can find one of these, or is this something you...

Hi, I'm trying to figure out if 2001. 5-2002 2 piston front calipers will work on my 1995 2WD Dually. If the knuckles will swap out that would work because I need to do ball joints anyway. I have read about some guys fitting 3rd Generation brakes on their 2001. 5-2002 trucks, but I think these...

Hi, I have been doing some research on the best upgrades for the steering system, but almost everything I find is about 4wd trucks. The front end on my truck is loose and I figure I should rebuilt it better than stock. I have a 1995 2wd 3500 Do the same upgrades apply to a 2wd trucks? Do...

Can anyone tell me what the torque spec is for the disc brake backing plate to the axle? The backing plate includes the parking brake assembly. This is for a 2002 Dana 80 out of a 4wd 2500. I have put this axle into my 1995 for the disc brakes. Thanks for any help anyone can offer.

Hi, Having a problem with a 1991 D250 CTD. The alternator stopped charging so we replaced the alternator. The new alternator was over charging and boiling the battery. Took the new alternator back and replaced it with a new one, but same brand. It is still over charging. It has 14. 8 volts at...

I have 2 questions about the Cab and Chassis Dana 80 Axles. 1. Are the cab and chassis axles narrower in width? 2. Are the spring perches on cab and chassis axles the same as a regular pick up? 3. Did the cab and chassis axles come with disc brakes from 2001. 5-2002 like the regular...

I have a 1995 3500 and I would like to install oil pressure, coolant temp. , and oil temp. gauges without disturbing the stock gauge sending units. I want the stock gauges on the dash to still work, but also have some more accurate readings from after market gauges. I'm planning on using...
